kHz @ The Viper Room

I drove down to LA on Friday to see kHz live at The Viper Room in WeHo (that’s LA-speak for West Hollywood). My LA friend Roxanne came with me to the show. Even though kHz only got to play for about half an hour, the fact that Roxie came with me made it a really great time. I had soooo much fun!

The first few pictures below are of the great hotel I stayed at, The London West Hollywood, which I highly recommend. It turns out that Pull and Raiana from kHz were also staying there! Which makes sense because it’s literally about 100 feet away from The Viper Room. Rox and I had dinner at the excellent Gordon Ramsay restaurant in the hotel before the concert. I’d definitely stay there again.

The rest of the pics are during the show and then afterwards outside with the band. Rox and I both had a lot to drink, though she declined to join me in my “Jesus Christ” shot with a couple other fans of kHz in the downstairs lounge. I think Raiana called the one woman Athena? Anyway, they were cool. Everyone was cool. Roxie and I went back to the hotel bar around midnight or so to drink some more and talk. Our night ended around 3am, but not without a little surprise. Roxie and I were waiting down in the hotel lobby for her taxi to take her home when Raiana walked into the hotel! She came over and chatted with us for a few minutes. I tried to convince Roxanne to stay so we could go up to the 8th floor and crash the kHz hotel room and hang out with Pull and Raiana (Joe and Will were in a different hotel). But it was 3am and we were both pretty tired. So Roxie left and I went to my room. I was really tempted to go up to the 8th floor and do it anyway, but I decided against it. It wouldn’t have been as fun without Roxanne. And on sober (literally) reflection, I’m sure Raiana and Pull wouldn’t have been nearly as excited to see me and Roxie as I would have been to see them. hahaha!

Roxie easily convinced me to stay over Saturday. I had been planning on driving back on Saturday, but we were both somewhat hungover and just generally tired from the long Friday. So Rox and I hung out Saturday. I cleaned her vacuum filter and fixed her iTunes/iPod mess. ;-) Then we went to dinner and saw a movie. I slept over on Roxie’s custom “Floor Bed”. We had a nice Sunday morning and then I came home. I was really sad to leave because it was something I had been looking forward to for so long and now it was over. Meeting the band was awesome, and spending two whole days with Roxanne was super fun. It was just such a good time for me.

Thank you kHz (Pull, Raiana, Will, and Joe)!

Thank you Roxie!

I wanna do it all again!
